The principle of golf is simple – try hitting a small ball in a hole with as few swings of the golf club as possible, in a total of 9 or 18-holes spread over a large area. What is the fascination? It’s not possible to describe, it must be experienced. For those that start playing, they will enter a “golfing world” surrounded by terms such as greens, pros, handicaps, putting and wedges. Almost no other sport requires such coordination in an atmosphere that is perceived as just relaxing. Whether you are playing for the first time or improving your game, the golf courses in the surroundings of the InterCityHotels offer you every possibility.

On slightly sloping grounds between the “Alacher Höhe” and the “Orphalgrund” you will find the well maintained and sweeping 9-hole course of the "Golf Club Erfurt e.V.”. Guests are more than welcome, but should present a membership card with approved playing requirements. This is a small course that offers a wonderful golfing experience just 12 km from the InterCityHotel Erfurt.

Since 2003, the 18-hole course of the "Thüringer Golf Club Drei Gleichen Mühlberg e.V.”, offers golfers the chance to play on a magnificent course in the region between Weimar and Eisenach known as the “Klassikerstraße” (tourist route). Here you will also find a 6-hole quick-course and a driving range for up to 50 persons. Enjoy golfing in a historical area and afterwards relax in the InterCityHotel Erfurt – just 26 km away.
